Retrospective fitment of quattro badged front grill

Post by rtd » Sat Nov 05, 2016 4:19 am

Folks I'm thinking of fitting a quattro badged front grill. However, just wanted to ask if this maybe dependent on what type of radar options the car has - I'm sure I read somewhere that this may not be possible if your car has certain radar based options fitted. Supposedly they impede a direct bolt on or something... can someone possibly shed some light

I dont think it makes any difference.
However, there are different ring mounts for night vision cameras.

I think the RS3 has the radar / sensor where the quattro badge goes so they have to choose either badge or ACC but the radars on the 6 are where you'd normally expect the fog lights ot be so not really affected by the grille.
